Preexec before SSH command about bash-preexec HOT 3 CLOSED

Hey @vroumvroum,

I'm unable to recreate. Could you try using a simpler preexec command to confirm it's getting executed? e.g.

preexec() { echo "«$1»"; }

For example:

$ preexec() { echo "«$1»"; }
$ ssh [email protected]
«ssh [email protected]»

from bash-preexec.

Hey @rcaloras,

Thank you so much for answering.
It's working now. I didn't understand that command line arguments were all aggregated into "$1".

So I needed to cut "$1" or make a regex search on it. Here is what I did

preexec() { cmd=$(echo $1 | cut -d " " -f1); if [ "$cmd" == "ssh" ]; then tmux rename-window "$1"; fi }
precmd() { tmux rename-window "vroumvroum VDI"; }
